• Food as fuel that provides energy or supports growth
• Body signals: hungry, full, tired, energetic
• Balanced eating across a full day, not one meal
• Sleep needs at this age and their effect on mood and focus
• Individual variation in food and sleep needs among same-age children
• Movement and active play as a daily body need, not limited to recess
• A personal one-day plan combining food, movement, and sleep
• The specific function each fuel/rest/movement choice supports
• Recognizing that individual and context-based variation can make a non-standard-looking schedule still meet fuel/rest/movement needs

Every lesson is written for a parent with no teaching background: it opens with a short script to read aloud, names the specific wrong idea a student is likely to reach for and how to correct it, and closes with a practice sheet you may copy for your household. Scripture references are King James Version throughout. Black-and-white, 8.5 x 11 in. The whole year of this course is also in this store as a single book.
